Sign-End Of Time

David Hyker - Liturgical Leader

Many of us were taught to close our eyes when praying. This is a prayer with a focus on being in God’s presence rather than performing in God’s presence with the right-brain experience of feeling what is holy-a divine mystery without much distraction.

In today’s Gospel reading Pharisees and scribes ask of Jesus and SIGN, end of time. In response, Jesus said, “you evil and unfaithful generation ask of sign but none will be given except that of Jonah”.

This language of Jesus is figurative and symbolical like he died and after three days he resurrected from the dead, it is important to gaze at the crucifix with complete attention and to pray with them. Gazing is probably the best word to touch the core of our spirituality.With many accounts of evil spirits, the scripture affirms spiritual forces (foil spirits) which are familiar with human weaknesses and desires while some more vile than others.

These spirits of error can enter and posses people and the ramification are sick and terrible manifestations. Harden not your heart, but keep the faith strong to resist temptations, wickedness and corruption of the human race and when the void in us is filled with the power of the Holy Spirit, we transcend to our higher power.
                              The End.
